The 2008 crash is probably the most serious economic crisis we have faced after the Great Depression. Stock markets from around the world fell as much as 20% in a single week, dozens of banks either failed or were rescued by government and private instutitions, and companies started laying off employees as a consequence of the reduced demand.
We know how we entered into the crisis, but we don’t how, when, or how we will be getting out of it. Considering that issue, we decided to our little bit to help cheer everyone up by redoing the logos of some renowned companies …. after the crisis.
Bonus Logo
While Apple is probably one of the more stable companies in our economy, with a robust and diverse set of high-demand products… we just couldn’t resist this one.

You’re killing me. I really wish I could live in your delusion.

Also, I think you’re ridiculous for paying that much for a computer when people are starving. You should be ashamed.
Cool. The Xerox one took me a second.
Xerox, 3M and Apple’s execution = well thought!
mattro2.slow You posted a link supporting the fact that Apple still has the strongest gains to date percentage wise. Also, if someone is in the market for a good computer and a Apple computer meets their needs, what is the problem? It is not their fault that someone else doesnt have the money. You should be ashamed for chiding someone from wanting to buy a product that traditionally is a solid product and has very good customer service.
my favorites: xerox, 3m (2m), apple.
quite cool.
the contrived ones: LG, Good Year (Bad Year), Citigroup
quite predictable.
will forward this article to my buddies. thanks
this is great!
mattro2.0 – You also need to consider in-use cost and not just purchased cost in your buying decision. While its true the Apple may cost to more to purchase, the in-use-cost has been much less than it’s PC rival (unfortunately I have to use a PC as well as a Mac). The Apple tech support both online at the Genius bar in the Mac store has been superior to PC support, less downtime with the Mac from a more stable operating system, less energy used, all end up making the Apple a better overall value. He/she who only considers purchase price gets what he/she pays for!
Wow, that’s some pretty fine rationalization there, Carrpe Diem!
As a professional, you SHOULD pay for the right equipment. Giving away money to seemingly cheap solutions that force you to pay again and again for support and “upgrades” will guide you to starving as well. A professional Mac system has at least three times the life span of a (after all, not so) cheap windows-based system. Period.
